2023 WF Baseball - Schedule Released

Debbie Downer here....this weekends' opponents are not close to ACC competition....just a reality check....
 
didn’t realize crum was pitching now. in theory we have a lot of bullpen depth.

was also surprised to see an identical lineup for the first two games.

Of course not. But anyone can beat anyone on any day in baseball and not only are we 2-0 but we have crushed both opponents. OOC has been a huge issue over the years. We have to pile up wins.
 
Alot of success in college baseball is just limiting your own mistakes. better teams put more pressure on you but last year's team didn't do that against anybody.

Playing a game where we only gave up one base on (BB/E/HBP/SB) is very encouraging in game 2.

In 16 innings we have given up 3 BB, 1 SB, 1HBP and 1 ER. If you limit those, you are going a long way in limiting crooked numbers on defense.

From what I have seen, the baserunning is crisper so far. Many more 1st to 3rds on singles then last years station to station team with numerous baserunning errors. another early encouraging sign.

Not many defensive errors either which we’ve certainly been prone to.
 
East Carolina started the season ranked #12 and are now 0-2 following back-to back losses to Bryant, whoever that is. Baseball is a weird sport.
 
Errors, bad pitching, hbp, base running mistakes are all things a team controls on its own. Opponent, good, bad or indifferent, has little impact on them. Keep that stuff under control and wins come a lot easier.
 
Up 2-1 in the 4th. VCU has 0 hits. Their run is from a walk, advancing the runner a couple times, and a passed ball. Those are the types of miscues we can’t have.
 
3-0 opening weekend. Can’t ask for more than that. Next up is our kryptonite: mid-week games.
 
UNCG tues then 4 games including a double header Saturday against NJIT who Virginia beat 7-3 today bit I think is still supposed to be decent.
 
The g played s carolina close took 1 of 3 all tight games

Better known as a lacrosse school, where the ex Duke lacrosse couch went and still is after being run out of Durham during the false rape scandal. Didn’t know they had a baseball team.
 
Bryant is nationally known for their actuarial major. Their coach must have plenty of higher-level stats at his disposal, as well of lots of bench help figuring out probabilities before making a pitching or lineup changes.
